Physio+10 focuses on trailblazing Physiotherapists  and this conversation with Dr Jo Milios is an absolute corker. Jo’s career started in the dance and yoga spheres but a spinal condition closed this door. As so often happens it also opened another door of opportunity. Lead by curiosity and by funnelling her creativity, Jo moved into and it could be said, created a completely new realm of Physiotherapy services - that being Men’s Health.In this conversation with Jo we learn;The benefit of curiosityBe willing to say yes and step outside of the current boxThe importance of seeking out new experiences and honing in on those that excite youIf you can’t find something, adapt known knowledge and create it yourselfLinks between hard (penile) health and heart healthBiographyPrincipal Physiotherapist with a special interest in Men’s Health, Yoga & Pilates.

As a private practice MSK Physiotherapist with more than 15 years PT experience, Jo was invited by her Urologist brother to establish a Men’s Health service to treat his prostate cancer patients in 2005. The decade since then has resulted in Jo treating over 3000 prostatectomy patients , over 500 chronic pelvic pain patients and 100’s of men with Erectile Dysfunction and a dire recognition that Men’s Health is far behind Women’s Health. Presentations at international conferences include, 2011’s Australia New Zealand Urological Society meeting , 2014’s Asia- Pacific Sexology Conference in Brisbane, Poster Presentation at 2014’s World Congress Prostate Cancer Conference, Podium presentations in Men’s Health at WCPT15 in Singapore and Cape Town 2017.
